Chapter 405
He looked at me with a vicious stare. "Wanda Lane, what did I do to make you plot against me?"
I chuckled. "It’s simple. First, I have a grudge against Grayson Louis. Second, I''m helping Heidi get
rid of a jerk like you. Given that you''re not the type who listens, I had no choice but to take things
this far."
"You have some guts!" Benny was so pissed that his eyes grew bloodshot.
Since things have turned out this way, he might as well go all out. Benny pulled his necktie off and
walked toward me. "No way. She has to die today. If she''s dead, I''ll have a way out."
"You''re crazy.” Lawrence looked at him with frustration.
I did not panic when Benny was approaching me. I was counting silently in my heart.
When I counted to ten, loud noises came from outside.
Lawrence shot me a nce. "Miss Lane, I just did as I was ordered to. I didn’t want to hurt you. You
know that as well."
After he said that, he dashed into the bathroom.
I saw him stick his head into the bathtub filled with
water. I secretly sighed while looking at this brilliant man.
Benny realized that he had been betrayed. He cursed," Lawrence Ray, you son of a b*tch!"
The police officers rushed in and instantly held him down on the floor. Theo walked toward me and
covered me with a jacket. His expression was frighteningly gloomy. Carlson and Tyler came in after
that, both with terrible expressions on their faces. They let out soft sighs. "I''m fine."
When Chief Ford saw me in such a terrible state, he almost had a stroke and died on the spot. He
looked at Benny who was being held down on the floor with a hateful gaze. He kicked him forcefully.
"F*cking animal!"
I was sent to the hospital. Theo left after the wounds o n my body were treated and dressed. Tyler
kept mepany in the ward.
"Wandy, I''m extremely pissed off right now," he said without an expression on his face.
I let out a small cough and remained silent.
"I don’t know if I should beplimenting you for maturing or calling you dumb." Tyler was
frustrated." This is my first time seeing someone set up a plot that almost got themselves killed."
I smiled awkwardly. "But I got what I wanted. It''s fine since it''s the oue I was aiming for."
"If my uncle and I weren''t in Salt City, you would’ve lost your life today," Tyler said heartlessly.

I curled my lips. "The point is you’re here, right? If I knew you weren''t around, I wouldn''t have
schemed against him."
Tyler snorted lightly. He did not lecture me anymore. H e sat on the chair and said calmly, "Benny
will never get out. He has the blood of several people on his hands and has done many other illegal
deeds. Back then, he had Chief Ford backing him up. He made use of Chief Ford''s authority and no
one dared to do anything to him. However, Chief Ford can’t even protect himself this time, not to
mention help Benny."
"Who''s the one backing Chief Ford?" I had always wanted to figure this out.
"Petra White." Tyler smiled faintly. "They found transaction records between the two. It''s proven. Of
course, Grayson seems to be involved in it as well. It''s just that he''s meticulous when doing things.
There''s n o evidence that can link it to him. But if he doesn''t want to get involved in this, I''m afraid
he''ll have to keep a distance from Petra and Cindy from today onward."
"That means I did something good." I smiled brightly." The final result is much better than I
imagined."
"Don’t get too happy yet. We still can’t do anything." Tyler continued to nag at me.
I nodded my head. "It’s alright. I’m not in a rush. We’ll
take it slow and see how things go."
Heidi initially wanted to use Theo''s power to keep Benny in prison. However, I refused to do that. I
did not want Benny to have the chance to get out in the future. Hence, solely relying on Theo''s
power would not be enough.
Maybe God did not like bastards like Benny who lorded over others. When I heard that Carlson
arrived i n Salt City yesterday, I took the opportunity toe u p with an ambitious plot.
After Tyler left, I fell asleep.
